Abstract: A method and computing apparatus for verifying an operability of a target device are provided. The method includes sequentially obtaining first image information of the target device, initiating a communication with the target device, obtaining second image information of the target device, comparing the first image information with the second image information; and determining whether the target device is operational based on a result of the comparing wherein the target device is determined as being operational when the first image information is different from the second image information, and the target device is determined as at least one of not receiving communications and not operational when the first image information is identical to the second image information.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic network traffic manipulation are disclosed. According to one embodiment, in an information processing apparatus comprising at least one computer processor and executing a computer application a method for dynamic network traffic manipulation may include: (1) receiving, at a computer application, an identification of a test to be performed on a software application under test; (2) receiving, at the computer application, a parameter for the test; (3) establishing, by the computer application, a connection between a first endpoint and a second endpoint, wherein the software application under test communicates with the first endpoint and the second endpoint using a communication channel; (4) intercepting, by the computer application, a data packet to or from the software application under test; (5) processing the intercepted data packet to apply the test with the parameter; and (6) monitoring the software application under test.
